OVERVIEW

As a litigator with over twenty-five years of experience, Jacqueline Sharuzi is devoted to advocating for healthcare professionals and organizations facing complex legal challenges. Jacqueline's broad skill set has allowed her to defend diverse lawsuits across the country alleging various forms of medical negligence. From inception to trial, Jacqueline is an aggressive litigator. Her ultimate goal is a favorable resolution in the best interests of her clients. To accomplish that, she identifies weaknesses in her opponents' cases and pursues them through the use of targeted discovery, all while shoring up her clients' defenses. Jacqueline's meticulous attention to detail and strategic approach to each case have resulted in a successful track record of defending clients in high-stakes litigation.

Jacqueline has chaired dozens of high exposure cases to verdict in various counties in the greater Chicagoland area and Colorado. These verdicts include cases alleging catastrophic birth-related injuries, pediatric care, emergency room care, psychiatric care, surgical care, hospital administration, negligent credentialing, negligent hiring/supervision, to name a few. Jacqueline is also a proficient writer, who firmly believes in pursuing dismissal of cases or allegations by way of motion practice before they reach the courtroom. By keeping up to date with the relevant law, Jacqueline has successfully secured the dismissal of cases in their entirety through the use of appropriately timed motion practice.

While trials and verdicts are typically the barometers by which a litigator's career is measured, Jacqueline appreciates and identifies cases that merit prompt resolution, either by way of arbitration, mediation, or settlement. By listening to the specific needs of each client, Jacqueline is able to effectively counsel her clients regarding their options on cases that warrant early resolution.

In 2021, after twenty years of practice at her predecessor firm, Jacqueline left to start her namesake firm based in Denver, Colorado. A testament to her legal and leadership skills, as well as the trust and confidence placed in her over the years, 100% of firm clients and staff followed Jacqueline to Sharuzi Law Group Ltd.

With a deep understanding of medical protocols and procedures, Jacqueline is passionate about ensuring fair and just outcomes for her clients in the healthcare industry. Her dedication to excellence and unwavering commitment to clients sets her apart as a trusted advocate in the field of medical malpractice defense.
